Frequently Asked Questions


What is counseling?

Counseling is a way to address emotional, psychological or relationship concerns you or your family may be having. Generally, counselors meet with clients once a week for 50 minutes to work toward resolving difficulties and achieving goals that clients and counselors have developed together. Individuals may be seen alone or with significant others in couples or family counseling.


How much does counseling cost?

Fees for therepeutic services as well as for testing and assessment are available upon request. Additionally, on your initial consultation we will inform you of the hourly fee for your sessions. Feel free to email us to learn more about our fees.

Note: A different set of fees applies for court-related work.

Payment for services is an important aspect of any professional relationship. You are responsible for seeing that our services are paid in full. This prevents you from having a past-due balance and keeps our therapeutic relationship free of undue financial tension.

Because I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, many insurance plans will reimburse you for part or all of the services I offer. Please call your benefit’s office to find out this information. If I am not on the panel for your insurance company I will be happy to discuss other payment arrangements with you. Please keep in mind the following: (1) I have no role in deciding what your insurance covers. (2) Please check your coverage, deductibles, payment rates, co-payments, and sessions allowed for the year.

We will contact you the week of your appointment to verify benefits if card information has been uploaded into our client portal.
